Shire of Northam CCTV

The Shire of Northam has installed a number CCTV cameras in Northam which are monitored by the Northam Police day and night. The network allows monitoring specifically by the Police, allowing them to respond before an incident escalates. The footage recorded by the CCTV cameras may also be used as evidence in the prosecution of offenders by Police and the Shire of Northam. Over the next few years the Shire of Northam is intending to expand its existing CCTV network.

Privately Owned CCTV

The Blue Iris CCTV Registry is a secure database that private CCTV owners can use to register their equipment. The state-wide database assists Police by providing to them information about the location of private CCTV. This does not give the Police live access to your footage however, they will have the opportunity to contact you and request use of your footage to help with their investigations.
